Talking about a revolution

,----[ Quote ]
| Hundreds of Linux users from across the world met in Wolverhampton on the 7th 
| and 8th July 2007. They got together to talk about software, digital rights

The LUG is dead - Long live the soulless marketing corporate junket

,----[ Quote ]
| Nowadays, the technical problems have been solved, documented, and 
| printed onto t-shirts. Our next problem is to monetize, and corporate 
| events help facilitate that. This is the domain of money men and business 
| brains; something very few old school geeks have. 
| 
| Nowadays, us humans are comfortable with virtual meetings and 
| discussions, so we have less need for meetings.
